LUSELAND — The Town of Luseland is currently amending its Animal Control Bylaw. We will be adding felines to the registration process. Cat owners will now have to register their pets just as dog owners have for years. We plan to use money from pet registration to help with stray animal control. The fees will also support management issues associated with stray animals.

The Luseland Community Hall will soon be having its first show of the season since the theatre equipment has been moved over. The date for the first movie has been set for Oct. 27. 

Residents will notice much activity happening out at the Luseland landfill. The town had received funding under the ICIP grant towards the decommissioning of the landfill. We are currently doing some clay covering and work required as part of the phasing-out process. Once this is completed, the landfill will be a dedicated transfer station. Nothing will change in terms of weekly garbage collection and we have already had LORAAS containers at the landfill and operating as a transfer station for some time.

Council would like to welcome new councillor Ryan Bazylinski to our team. Ryan was elected in the town's most recent byelection. He was sworn in at the September council meeting and we are excited to have our council positions filled once again.

Trach Power Skating and Skills was in Luseland on Oct.13-15 to run a skating and skills hockey camp at the Luseland Memorial Arena. Hockey Sask will also be at the Luseland arena to run a camp Oct. 20-22. We are excited to kick off the hockey season with lots of upcoming activities.

The Luseland Mallards will also kick things off with an exhibition game Oct. 20 against Unity in Luseland and then go to Biggar Oct. 22 for another exhibition game. There have been some substantial rink upgrades being made over the off-season, with the penalty boxes being moved and a new sound system installed. The Rink Improvement Committee has been busy and we appreciate their dedication towards keeping our arena viable and sustainable into the future.

The Town of Luseland is part of the KLD (Kerrobert and Luseland District) Hospital Foundation. The KLD is planning a mini hospital lottery to continue to raise funds to support health care in our communities. In the past few years, the KLD has supported the development of the helipad at the hospital, boiler replacement and asbestos removal at the Pioneers Haven and most recently the purchase of four new hospital beds as well as vitals monitors for Kerrobert EMS.

The Town of Luseland would like to acknowledge the Luseland Credit Union for their $3,500 donation to cover the cost of new umbrellas for the picnic tables at the Luseland Credit Union Swimming Pool. With one donated by the Luseland Canada Day Committee in July they have all been replaced, offering some sun protection and shade when visiting the pool and spending the day. The generosity of our various businesses and organizations in Luseland who always step up to the plate to help support our recreational facilities does not go unnoticed.
